Welcome to the Soundiron Lakeside Pipe Organ
Welcome to the Soundiron Lakeside Pipe Organ! We always wanted to record a pipe organ, since its one of
those instruments that has an instant character and emotional impact.The origins of the pipe organ can be
traced back to the Ancient Greece, where wind supply for the pipes was created with water pressure. But the
instrument evolved over time and by the 12th Century the organ had evolved into a complex instrument
capable of producing different timbres.
The Lakeside Organ follows the tradition of classic organ. It is made from over 850 different pipes arrayed in
15 ranks. The pipes are mostly steel and wood, which gives a wonderful bright, airy sound to the organ. We
recorded each individual note on the organ, since each pipe has a unique character. In addition we recorded 6
different core settings on the organ, which can be compared to PP, P, MP, MF, FF) in terms of dynamic range. All
settings were recorded with 2 microphone positions (stage/close and hall/far) for greater flexibility. The stage
position was recorded from about 8 feet back from the primary ranks of pipes, while the hall position was
recorded out in the church at about 30 feet back.You may notice a warm, airy, humming drone in the
background. That is the sound of the bellows, which provide the air to the pipes. That sound is strongly
present whenever the organ is on.
For version 2.0, we’ve added a special collection of special FX presets, a huge range of custom convolution
reverb impulse settings, improved overall playability, added a full set of brand new automatable performance,
effect and arpeggiator controls, fixed a few minor bugs and refined the overall experience. and added the
“Organ Stop Mixer” panel to the the two main organ presets.
Please note: Version 1 of this library was originally published as “Lakeside Pipe Organ” by Tonehammer, Inc.

SOUNDIRON LAKESIDE PIPE ORGAN
ABOUT
LAKESIDE ORGAN
This organ's pipes have a bright, airy sound, with
plenty of bite. There are somewhere between
800-850 pipes, arrayed in 15 ranks, all made in
Erie, Pennsylvania. They are mostly steel, with a
few ranks of wood pipes. There are two blowers
providing the air to drive the pipes, which in turn
fill a pair of accordion-like chests that pump air
into the steel pipes. The pipes are mounted in a
large chamber that fills the entire left side of the
altar area. Most of the pipes actually face the
console, which sits behind a screen on the right
side of the altar.
BY MIKE PEASLEE
This grand pipe-electric combination resides in
the Lakeside Temple of Practical Christianity,
located in the Lake Merritt area of Oakland,
California.You can the rooftop of the Temple if
you were to look out the window of the Merritt
Cafe, which happens to serve the best chicken
and waffles we have ever tasted. The temple is a
large A-frame church, with a high, vaulted ceiling,
rear mezzanine and Gothic arches over the altar
and organ pipe chamber. It seats up to 400, but
generally maintains a congregation of about 40
these days.
The pipes haven't been tuned in quite some
time, so we've adjusted them by around a halfstep, in order to stay reasonably close to
standard concert pitch. Also, please be aware that
there is a substantial noise floor created by the
blowers and various air conduits, which can
quickly add up when playing many notes at once
in a software sampler. We have deliberately
avoided any sort of noise reduction to mitigate
this, since we found that it literally sucked all of
the clarity, life and realism out of the instrument
when even the slightest noise attenuation was
applied. Feel free to use your own noisereduction if you feel the need, but we actually
feel that this rather tonal wide-band “whooshing”
hum provides an airiness and breath that doesn't
hurt the sound at all.
Jennifer Lilburn is the presiding minister, and our
friend Donald Sears is the Musical Director and
Organist. He's served in that capacity for 32
years, along side a distinguished career as the K-8
music teacher for the Hayward Unified School
District, from which he is now retired. After
every Sunday service, they have a pot-luck lunch
and social hour and each time we visited, we
were greeted by all with an amazing openness
and warmth from every last parishioner we had
the pleasure of speaking with.
The organ was custom-built by Rodgers Organ
Company of Hillsboro, Oregon in December
1979. It was built to replace the aging original
all-pipe organ that had been there since the
church was built. At the time, the additional
electronic “stops” augmenting the traditional
pipes in the organ were considered state of the
art. Even now, the electric organ stops retain a
wonderful warmth and richness. However, with
the exception of our “Number 5” patches and
the mechanically operated struck-bar chime
array, we focused solely on capturing the sound
of the air-driven steel pipes for this offering.
3
Another thing to be aware of is that pipe organ
keyboards don't respond to velocity at all. Either
a note is on or it is off. Often, volume is
controlled with foot pedals or one or more of
the hand-pulled pistons (“stops”) that control
most aspects of the organ's sound. In most of
our patches, we’ve added full dynamic control
and a number of custom sound-shaping features
and controls, but if you really, really wanted to
simulate the real thing, you would need to turn
those features off.
SOUNDIRON LAKESIDE PIPE ORGAN
ABOUT THIS LIBRARY
Fidelity
Custom Convolution Impulses
This library was recorded in wide stereo at 44.1kHz /
16bit, in a natural open church. The bellows system that
provides air to the pipes also emits a very strong
background noise floor, which cannot be avoided. It’s a
natural and actual part of the organ sound, so we’ve not
diminished it through any artificial means. Also be aware
that some sound sources are very quiet and to capture
their full clarity and detail, it is necessary to allow low
levels of preamp and mic hiss to exist in the recordings.
We carefully choose our equipment and methods to
prevent this wherever possible, but some sounds are just
very small. Therefore, please do keep in mind that we
don't claim or aim to provide perfectly quiet or perfectly
sterile sounds or musical instrument samples.
We enjoy capturing the unique acoustic characteristics of
spaces and locations that we come across from time to
time. Sampling environments is similar to sampling
instruments in many ways. It’s done with portable
loudspeakers to produce a special sine wave sweep that
covers a wide spectrum, from 22 Hz to 22 kHz. We then
use dedicated deconvolution software to decode the
resulting audio into an impulse response file, which is a
wav file with special phase, frequency and timing
information embedded in the audio.
Accessibility
All of the sample content and impulse files are included as
standard non-encrypted PCM wav files and standard openformat Kontakt presets to allow you easy access to
manipulate, reprogram and customize the sounds however
you prefer. We know that it’s important for many users to
be able to go beyond the limitations of any one sampler or
preset structure, so we’ve kept this library’s directories
and files open for advanced users. As a professional, you
may have your own workflow or format requirements, and
we trust that you'll respect our hard work and won't
share this content with anyone who hasn't paid for it.
Keep in mind that to use and/or edit the Kontakt presets,
you’ll need the full retail version of Native Instruments
Kontakt 3.5, Kontakt 4 or Kontakt 5. Please be aware that
the free Kontakt “Player” and any other version or form of
Kontakt that came bundled with any other library or
software product (other than NI’s “Komplete” package)
will not support this library. The free Kontakt Player is
NOT a full version of Kontakt and cannot load or play
standard open-format Kontakt instruments or libraries.
While you can reprogram the samples or presets to other
formats, we always recommend using Kontakt for best
results, since it widely considered the industry standard
and easily the most powerful sample programming and
playback platform on the market. However, if you wish to
convert or reprogram the wav files and instrument
presets into any other sampler or softsynth format,
including free and open-source standards like SFZ, then
there are a variety of great tools that you can use to
customize this library, such as Extreme Sample Converter
and Chickensys Translator. Just be aware that not all
settings and properties will translate accurately, reliably or
even at all from one instrument or audio format to the
next, due to vast differences in standards, behaviors,
structures and capabilities that each platform relies on.

Most impulses sound like an odd sort of sharp, reveberant
snap, like a balloon pop or starting pistol fired in the
environment that was captured – which is is in fact how
impulses used to be made. When loaded into a compatible
convolution reverb effect plugin (such as the one built into
Kontakt), these impulses can impart their sonic properties
fairly well into most sounds. Of course, it's an imperfect
science and much is lost in the translation, especially if the
sound being played through it also has it's own strong
tonal, phase or reflective properties. Sometimes the
results are incredibly lifelike. Sometimes they're awful. It all
depends on the sound, the impulse, the plugin and the
settings used. Sometimes these variables don't play nice.
Then again, you may find some unexpectedly useful and
interesting results through a little experimentation.
We've included a hand-selected collection of impulse files
that we think compliment this’s library’s sound. You can
load them into most instrument presets by using the
“Tone / FX” control panel tab and selecting an impulse
from the Impulse drop-down menu.You can also manually
import any of the wavs in the Impulses directory into any
IR wav-compatible convolution effect plugin of your
choice. Just please just make sure to keep your speakers
or headphones turned down while you experiment.
Convolution processing can often create powerful and
piercing resonances when applied to many audio sources –
especially loud sounds that contain strong mid to low
frequency harmonic components.
System Requirements
The full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt 3.5
or later is required to use this library. Please be aware that
many instrument and multi-instrument programs in this
library are extremely ram/cpu and hard disk-streaming
resource intensive. We recommend that you have at least
2GB of system ram, a dual core cpu and at least a 7200
rpm SATA hard disk before purchasing this or any other
Soundiron library. Large sample sets like those found in
this library may load slowly and may cause system
instability on older machines.
SOUNDIRON LAKESIDE PIPE ORGAN
Download & Installation
Preset Loading
The Kontakt sampler presets in this library is designed for
the full retail version of Kontakt 3.5 and later ONLY. It
cannot be used in the free Kontakt Player. Please read all
instrument specs and software requirements before
purchasing this or any other Soundiron products to see
the full list of software requirements, features and format
compatibility for each library.
Once installation is complete, you can browse and load
the included .nki presets using the Files or Database tabs
in the Kontakt Browser, or through the main File load/save
menu. Please allow presets to finish loading completely
before loading a new one. You can’t use the Libraries view
to load standard open-format Kontakt Instruments like
this library. Only locked “Powered-By-Kontakt” Libraries
are visible to that propriety browser view. The “AddLibrary” function also does not support this product or
any other open-format Kontakt library. This library doesn’t
require any special activation.
We use the Continuata Download Manager to provide
high-speed, reliable and fully automated library
downloading and installation. Download and run the latest
version for your OS (PC or Mac) before proceeding.You'll
also need Java v1.6 or later. You may also need to add
permissions to your security settings for the downloader,
if they block applications from accessing the web.
Next, copy-paste your download code from your
download email into the Code box in the downloader
window. Make sure to leave out any spaces before or after
the code. Press the download button and select the
location you'd like to download and install the library. It
will automatically start downloading the file(s) and then
error-check, extract and install the finished library. Once
installation is fully complete, you can remove the .rar
download files and store them in a safe place as a back-up
copy. We always recommend downloading the latest
version of our downloader before you begin. The link in
your email will always take you to the latest version.
Don't move, rename, delete or modify any of the files or
folders created during the download until after you see
the status message for all files in your download queue
display the word "INSTALLED". Please don't close the
downloader while it's actively downloading, unless you
press the pause button first. To resume downloading, press
the Resume button. If you need to resume downloading
after closing the downloader, run it again and enter your
code and press Download again. Select the same
download/installation location on your computer that you
chose originally. If the downloader reports a DL Error or
Install error, it will usually try to download the file again
until it successfully downloads and verifies all the data it
needs. Please see your download email for more detailed
instructions.
User Presets
If you create custom presets of your own, remember to
save them with a new filename. Make sure to save them
into the same folder as the original or simply save your
custom preset directly into the User Presets folder
we've provided. Make sure to select "patch-only" and
uncheck the "absolute sample paths" box to preserve the
proper directory path structure of the library. This will
allow us to provide you future updates to the original
presets without accidentally overwriting your custom
settings and preserve the necessary relative sample,
wallpaper and impulse scripting file path settings.
Batch Re-Saving
If you move or change the directory structure within the
main folder of this library, you may see a "missing sample"
warning box when loading the presets into Kontakt. This
can generally be corrected by using the "Batch Resave"
command, located at the bottom of the drop down menu
you'll see if you click on the main File menu at the top of
Kontakt. Then select the folder you would like to resave.
Select this library's main folder and then if Kontakt asks
you where to find the missing files, select that same main
folder again and press OK to continue. That will update
the file-paths stored in the instrument. The scripted filepaths for the impulse files will not self-update however, so
the reverb impulse loading drop-menu on the Tone / FX
script tab will no longer work in many cases. To repair the
impulse menu file-paths, please restore the library to its
original structure.
Manual Download
If you have any trouble with our Downloader utility or
prefer to use your browser or another download
manager, log into your personal manual download page on
our website, by using the direct link in your download
email. Log in using your download code and the email
address you used to order. Or, if you used the downloader
originally, but you need to re-install the library manually
for any reason, at a later time you can always re-use the
original rar files. To do that, you'll need Winrar, UnrarX or
another full-featured Rar extraction utility to extract and
install the library once download is complete. Please note
that Stuffit Expander and Winzip DO NOT support many
types of common rar files.

Front Panel Controls
This instrument has a variety of special front panel performance controls that allow deep real-time
performance customization. Not all instrument presets include all controls listed below. Included controls
depend on the specific features suitable for each preset. Some may also use alternate CC mappings.You can
see each control’s assignment by clicking on each UI control to display the “hint” text in the Info bar at the
bottom of Kontakt.
SHAPING CONTROLS:
LFO EFFECTS:
Attack - (CC 74)
This knob controls the sharpness of attack.
Increasing the value causes the sound to attack
more softly.
Auto-Panner Depth
This knob controls the sweep depth of the panner
effect, which creates a stereo-based tremolo style
effect. A setting of 0 disables the effect.
Release - (CC93)
This controls the release time of the sound. Lower
settings cause the sound to be damped and cut
off, while higher settings allow the sound to play
out as long as a note is held down. In the “MW”
modwheel controlled X-fading presets, release has
been moved to CC93.
Auto-Panner Rate
This controls the speed/frequency that the autopanner LFO cycles at, measured in Hz.
Auto-Panner Depth
This knob controls the sweep depth of the
tremolo effect, which creates a classic amplitudebased tremolo effect. A setting of 0 disables the
effect.
Release Volume - (CC92)
This controls the volume of the release-triggered
samples.
Tremolo Rate
This controls the speed/frequency that the
tremolo LFO cycles at, measured in Hz.
Swell - (CC72)
This knob controls the overall volume and
intensity of the sound. This allows realtime volume
swelling and fading.
Vibrato Depth
This knob controls the sweep depth of the vibrato
effect, which creates a classic pitch-based vibrato
effect. A setting of 0 disables the effect.
Dynamics
A pipe organ doesn’t traditionally respond to note
velocity at all, but we’ve added a variable degree of
sensitivity. This knob allows you to precisely shape
the amount of dynamic response that the
instrument can express through midi note-on
velocity.

SOUNDIRON LAKESIDE PIPE ORGAN
Uberpeggiator Controls
We’ve designed a custom arpeggiator system to expand the instant creative potential of some of the
presets. It includes automatable performance controls that shape all aspects of the arpeggiator. When used
normally, pressing a key causes the note to self-repeat as long as a key is held down. If additional notes are
played, it adds them to the sequence of repeats in various ways, depending on the settings you choose and
can be used to produce complex melodic chains, plucking patterns and other effects.
Mode
This knob controls the Arpeggiator
mode. Choosing Off disables the
Arp system entirely. On sets it to
respond only while a note is
pressed., cycling through all held
notes as it arpeggiates. Hold sets it
to automatically sustain one note at
a time, (monophonic) so that
changing keys changes the note that
is repeating. Hold + sets it to
allow new notes to be added to the
automated chain of repeats.
Rhythm
This sets the speed of arpeggiation,
as measured in musical time,
ranging from whole bars to 128th
notes. Fast settings can yield
interesting results, but keep in mind
that the faster the speed, the more
voices you use.
Midi Thru
This button allows midi messages
to be passed through the script the
the instrument, which allows you to
play normal sustaining notes on top
of the arpeggiation.
Hits and H. Scale Knobs
Sets the number of repeats of each
note BEFORE moving on to the
next note in the arp sequence, and
H.Scale sets the intensity fall-off
rate for each repeat, before
resetting for the next note.
Arpeggio Direction Menu
This drop-down menu allows you
to select any number of simple or
complex cycle patterns that the
arpeggiation will follow as it plays
through the sequence of notes you
have triggered. Choosing “As
Played” will cause it to follow the
original order you played the notes
in, with the newest note always
added to the end of the chain.
Swing
This sets the amount of rhythmic
offset (swing) between notes.
Pitch
Sets the pitch up or down in
quarter-tone intervals for each
repeat AFTER the initial note is
pressed and it remains in a pseudo
legato state as long as any key is
held down. Changing this setting in
real-time allows extreme “glitch”
stutter and stair-step effects and
can self-generate strange grooves
and beats, based on the
combination of notes you hold.
10
Duration
This setting allows you to extend
or shorten the length of each
arpeggiated note.
Repeat Setting
This sets the direction of the up or
down repeats.
Velocity Graph Sequencer
This customizable graph allows you
to draw the precise midi velocities
that you want each step in your
arpeggiation sequence to play at.
Reset
Resets the Graph to blank
Steps
This setting determines the number
of steps that are used by the
velocity graph step sequencer,
starting from the left.
Table Velocities
This activates the Graph. When it is
active, the arpeggiation follows the
note velocities that you’ve drawn
on the graph. When it is bypassed,
each note repeat is played at the
velocity that it’s original note was
played at.
Key Selector Knob
Binds the arpeggiation scale you’ve
chosen to a specific key.
Scale Selector
Control binds the arpeggiation
sequence to a specific scale that
you can choose by turning the
knob.
Key Root Note Button
This sets the root note of the Key
you’ve chosen to the next higher or
lower octave.
Constrain Button
Limits and adjusts any new note to
the currently selected scale and key.
SOUNDIRON LAKESIDE PIPE ORGAN
Organ Stop Mixer Controls
We’ve included a custom organ stop mixer interface in the two multi-layered master presets, which are
called “lakeside organ all-stop mixer close.nki” and “lakeside organ all-stop mixer far.nki”. This extra panel
allows you to independently add or remove organ stops and fine tune the volume of each layer in realtime.
Keep in mind that these master presets require a very large number of voices, even without all of the organ
stops active. This can put extra strain on your CPU, harddrive and sound drivers. For best results, we
recommend using audio driver latency settings of at least 512 samples to prevent audio dropouts or
popping.
Stop 1 On/Off Button
This button enables/disables the first organ stop.
Stop 4 On/Off Button
This button enables/disables organ stop #4.
Stop 1 Volume Knob
This controls the overall volume level of organ stop 1 in
the mix.

Organ Presets:
lakeside organ all-stop mixer close.nki
This is the master preset, from stage perspective. IT puts all
pipe organ 6 stops at your fingertips. The front panel
controls all 6 layers in unison, but you can switch on and
off any of the stops and adjust the volume of each one
indepenently simply by using the Organ "Stop Mixer"
panel. Please keep in mind that this preset requires a lot of
voices to work properly, even with most of the stops
turned off. We don't recommend latency settings below
512 samples for this preset.

ah good doctor Ive been expecting you.nki
Brutal, resonant and dark, like a massive pipe organ
echoing through the halls of a forbodding mansion on
the hill.
lakeside bumblebuzz mw-sting.nki
Just a nasty, tashy grinding distorted organ. Use the
modwheel to control the level of distortion.
lakeside chimecycle mw-echo.nki
This special preset creates a chorus of spinning chimes
that endlessly ring outafter the first note. Use the
modwheel to control the intensity of the chime chorus.
lakeside joyous sing-a-long.nki
A swirling, rich, muddy space, with a resonant wash.
lakeside jump.nki
Sounds like drowning the 1980s in a toilet. OR maybe
just giving it a swirly.
lakeside kablooey.nki
Just absolutely nasty. Beware, this one gets loud.
lakeside reorganized.nki
A little bit menacing, a lot bit resonant.
lakeside shrending.nki
Strange and fluid, like time unwound from it's coil.
lakeside sleepytime.nki
More metal than metal, this one will melt your face off
with its pure raging power.
lakeside tolls for thee.nki
A curse!
